Do you want to do some research about prisoners of war (POWs) or POW camps?
Do you want to list someone who was a POW?
Do you want to share information, experiences or stories about POWs?
This On-Line Museum has collections about allied military POWs (1939 - 1945) held by:
The Germans
The Italians
The Japanese
and Facebook Groups for discussion about these subjects.
You can visit these collections and
you can add to them.
Let us know any information you have that you would like to be added to this on-line museum.
(Because there is a lot of work to do, please don't worry if it is not always possible
to answer you immediately)
When you find the link to the camp you are looking for
you can add a name to the list of other POWs who were there.
Please remember: these lists are not complete -
they rely on people like you to add names to them.
